  England play their second match in the World Cup at the spanking new Green Point Stadium in Cape Town, which looks like an enormous flying saucer at the foot of Table Mountain. There can be few more spectacular backdrops for football anywhere.  
    
  Johannesburg  
    
  Poor old Johannesburg — few places on Earth get such a bum rap. There’s no denying that the city of gold has a disturbingly high crime rate, but it’s not the hell-hole of urban legend. It’s worth remembering that most front-page- headlining acts take place in areas a tourist would never go to. Would you visit New York and head straight from JFK to the dodgiest parts of the Bronx or step off the Eurostar at Gare du Nord and mooch around the 20th arrondissement in Paris?

According to the South African medical journal yes!
    
  South African standards for occupational noise required hearing protection for workers exposed to levels of 85 decibels and above. 10 football fans attended a PSL game at a 30,000 seater fifa approved stadium and wore personal sound exposure meters and had them fixed to their shoulders.
    
The researchers said the average sound exposure experienced by the participants during the almost two hours they spent in the stadium was 100.5 decibels. The peak exposure exceeded 140 decibels for eight of the ten participants, with the maximum peak reaching 144.2.
